GURPS Basic Set: Campaigns

GURPS Fourth Edition Basic Set

by Steve Jackson, Sean Punch, David L. Pulver

With GURPS, you can be anyone you want�an elf hero fighting for the forces of good, a shadowy femme fatale on a deep-cover mission, a futuristic swashbuckler carving up foes with a force sword in his hand and a beautiful woman by his side . . . or literally anything else! GURPS has been the premiere universal roleplaying game for almost two decades. The new Fourth Edition makes it even better!

GURPS Basic Set: Campaigns combines information from the Third Edition GURPS Basic Set and GURPS Compendium II�plus our new core setting, with infinite possibilities for timeline-hopping adventure! (You don't have to play in the core setting�there isn't some game-altering metaplot�but it's there if you want it.)

Genres: Role Playing Games, Gaming, Reference, Games, Nonfiction, Dungeons and Dragons

Can't wait to start a fun gaming session with my family!! Thank you, Steve, for giving me a way to communicate with my special needs sons!

While technically you only need this book if you are going to GM, it is always a good idea to know the basic rules of the system. If you are going to play GURPS, I recommend getting both Basic books.
